    Should've just pulled the engine and dropped in a 455 Olds and called it a day, smooth, powerful V8, no more 125 hp V8, LOL!

    1 of my longtime friends still talks about my 1st Eldorado all the time. He fell in love with it. He claims he want to buy 1 someday but I have to warn him to be mindful about that engine it comes with.

    Very cool that you have your brochure. You know what’s up!My new car: 2002 Cadillac DTS

    It’s not that easy.. Remember the Eldorado is a front wheel drive car with a transverse V8. People always say to just throw in another engine not realizing what a big change it’s going to be.

    That was also FWD. The Toro was always FWD from '66, then in '79 they put the Toro, Riv, and Eldo all on the same north-south FWD chassis. Then in '85, maybe it was '86, they shrunk them and went to a transverse engine, with the Eldo being the only one with a V8.
